4 YEAR COST OF OWNERSHIP || 2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA S

I give you a 4 year update on the Cost of Ownership with my 2010 Porsche Panamera S. Just how much does is Cost to Daily Drive a Porsche Panamera V8!
Check out my video on the first 3 years of ownership. I also included the links to the web site's that I get my parts from.

Great update! My 2015 Panamera has just 28k miles on it, but I decided to do all of the recommended service for a 6 year old vehicle. Tremendous cost savings doing it myself. The dealer is doing the PDK service because that’s a complicated job. Easiest part was the serpentine belt which took just a few minutes. The engine air filter was awful, having to pull out the headlights and the front bumper. My G2 Panamera is available for any video use in the future. Right here in San Diego! Great channel. Appreciate the updates!

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

I'll have to come up with a video idea. Would love to feature your Panamera! Will let you know. Thanks again for Watching!

[@thomashelm6931]

Thanks for your video! I, also, I have a 2010 Panamera S. I bought it last year with 65,000 miles on it. Right away, I had the oil changed and the transmission serviced. I'm unable to do those tasks anymore, So that cost me $1,200. Additionally, I had the engine mounts changed and the water pump and thermostat needed replacement within 5 months of ownership. Those jobs cost me $4,000 total. Again, having to rely on an independent foreign car workshop. To date, after owning the car for 14 months, it has an additional 9,000 mi on it. How many miles does yours have on it? The mechanic was able to pull up some service records on mine and noted that many things were accomplished on the 60,000 mile service interval. Frankly, I'm not waiting for everything to fall apart, like many foreign car owners do. I feel very confident in my vehicle but, unfortunately, I don't have the capability of working on it myself. Thanks again!

[@sethbrundels]

I enjoyed your positive input, I always hear negative things about the Panamera, I really want one

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

Thanks for Watching!

I spent $14,000 in my two years of my 2013 Porsche Panamera living on Oahu using mix of dealer and private shop. It’s like new now - had to replace all rotors, pads, suspension rubber, all engine seals, 4 tires, tranny flush and all fluid replaced, battery, central door lock solinoid, both hood struts, gas cap, door lock buttons on righ side, Bose amp and roof liner. U done 👍 Porsche Panamera is fave and worst car. Epic when works and advise buy new panamera or Porsche certified. It’s also my daily driver and also use as my kid bus. All the positive things you said but if service at a Porsche dealer - then have lots of cash. Ps - was owned by a little old lady and assume wasn’t driven much prior to me. I pray can go two years with standard Porsches services - I pray

I've been considering one after my eclipse. I have had it for 1.5 years and spent similar amount of money but in less time. Great video

[@Smurftray2010]

Nice work, thanks for keeping us update. Keep posting about the car

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

Will do. Thanks for Watching!

[@mr.terwilliger5728]

Over the years Iv seen people get emotionally involved in buying cars that attract them and the cost of ownership. If you can afford it, get it. If you can’t, buy a Toyota that will almost guarantee to never breakdown if you take care of it.

[@anthonyleroy1672]

Top vidéo ! Thanks for sharing. I’m considering to buy a 970.2 Turbo Panamera. It’s a bit risky because I have the same pockets as yours but I am not skilled for mechanic :-(

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

Look for a lower mileage car with a good service record and you should be OK. Good luck and Thanks for Watching!

[@nicholaspavlov5630]

Hi! Thank you for the informative video. Which brand of brakes and rotors did you buy to get rid of the squeal? Thank you in advance!

[@andrewmalinowsky4667]

What scanning tolls you will advise to buy?

[@nathanielrobinson9663]

1). Are both the inlet and outlet on the magnaflows on the same side? 2). Did u throw a code when u disconnected the air vacuum lines on the stock mufflers when u put the magnaflows on?

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

Yes. Magnaflow # SS11376 www.summitracing.com/parts/mpe-11376?+%2b11376&MagnaFlow&Part+Number+Ad+Groups No codes, don't have adjustable exhaust. Thanks For Watching! Sorry for the delay!

Hey Mike! What site and or brand do you suggest for brakes and rotors? I have a 2010 S.

[@naqviab]

I am looking to buy 2011 it’s a 6 cylinder has 120k mikes on it. Should I go for it or no please advise thanks in advance.

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

120k Miles is a little high for me unless the price is right.

[@Geraldlord5303]

That's not a true cost that's a DIY cost it's not the same thing I want the cost of taking it to Porsche

[@eskachig]

People who buy these old depreciated porches generally don't take them to the dealer. Different sort of buyer.

[@adventurer4188]

Have you had to change the fuel pump yet? That ran me $4,500 on a 2011 Cayenne Turbo, sold it next day. I’m moving back to Porsche after 5 years off the wagon. Would you pick a 2015 Macon Turbo or a 2012 Panamera Turbo? It won’t be DD, just weekend warrior.

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

No, I haven't had to change anything but brakes, ignition coils and spark plugs. Hopefully that's it. I would go with the 2012 Panamera Turbo. I'm not a fan of SUV's.

[@almightybirdwatcher4986]

Man they really screwed you. It’s not that hard of a process, just have some crappy tools laying around and watch a couple KZbin videos. And you can diagnose your fuel pumps with a multimeter bro.

[@almightybirdwatcher4986]

Then again your prolly a grown ass man with no time so I can’t blame u for getting it done at the shop. I’m 21 and hopefully soon I can pick up either a 2013 panamera gts, Lexus isf 2012, 2008 corvette c6 LS3, most likely going to stick with the ISF or vette but this thing is tempting me. Comfy, fast, good looking, not too bad to work on myself. I won’t be using it as a daily anyways. I currently have a Lexus is350. U have any suggestions my man. I’m skeptical of buying it. I know with an ISF I’ll never have to worry about a single thing and I could build it for an extra 10k and be faster than 99.7% of the cars on the road

[@marcelcovaci9922]

I have experience working on semi trucks. I have 2 Mercedes, doing the maintenance myself on them, I have no issues doing brakes, steering ,suspension work, belt, pulleys , tensioner… But Porsche…. I’m a bit worried

[@dsthewriter]

question ; I have a problem with my 2010 Panamera S, for a week I been having a problem with the key getting stuck, just a couple of days ago I drove to the store, place the key in, and it doesnt crank, my key is wore down, should replace the key?the key doesn't hold in place, pops out instantly

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

My Panamera has the keyless entry option, so there is a dedicated key fob that stays in the ignition. I don't have to put key in every time. Your problem could be the key but sounds more like the ignition cylinder is wearing out? Thanks for Watching!

[@cinsity1994]

mike if i have absolutely no experience with fixing cars myself, is it a crappy idea to buy something from 2010-2014? sounds like it good pile up for a layman

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

Without any mechanical experience, I wouldn't recommend it.

[@sandermarteijn9380]

Hi, i am willing to buy a panamera from 2011 with 215.000km on it. What do you you thing of it?

[@mikeshorsepowergarage7577]

As long as the price is right. With that kind of miles there could be some needed repairs. Like coolant leaks, brakes, belt tensioner, spark plugs/ignition coils and possibly some suspension components. It would be nice if it has a service record to give you a better piece of mind. Good luck and Thanks for Watching!

@@mikeshorsepowergarage7577 hi, thanks for replying. Those things you said are things i can do myself i guess? But do you think there are issues that are common with those kilometers wich are very expensive? Like the engine or pdk? It has a 3,6 L V6 petrol engine
